COLEMAN FOR MAYOR

Campaign Policies

Public Safety

The current administration has reduced police staffing by 26%. With crime on the rise, it’s imperative to keep our city safe. Kevin Coleman will ensure that the police department has the resources they need to prosper.

Taxes & Water Rates

Residents and business owners have been squeezed by higher and higher bills which has driven some people out of town. It’s time to take a look at government operations, and to make our city affordable again.

Local Economy

Businesses have been moving to neighboring communities like Livonia and Canton. Westland can, and will, become competitive again -but it will take changes to the way that the city interacts with potential investors.

Neighborhoods

Ordinance enforcement and neighborhood upkeep are a key part of keeping our city safe and clean. The current administration hasn’t made this a priority. Kevin Coleman’s ‘Neighborhoods First’ approach focuses on meeting the needs of our city’s residents.

Culture of Service

Kevin Coleman will foster a change in the culture at City Hall, because city employees are there to serve you – the people. Great customer service is an integral part of that.

Fiscal Responsibility

Westland is projected to have a 4-year $7 Million deficit. Spending has not been in line with revenue, and city pension funds have not been maintained – which will leave the burden on the taxpayer. Westland must become fiscally responsible again.

GOALS

Our Goals

Restoring Westland to its former glory is no small task. Here is a brief outline of some of our key goals to help get the city on the right track.

Get Tough On Crime.

We must reinvest in our police department that has had its staffing levels reduced by 26% under the current administration. Residents, business owners, and visitors to our town deserve to feel safe again. We will ensure that the city police force is well-budgeted and staff to keep our community safe.

Fix The Roads.

When our main thoroughfares are damaged and potholes abound, residents and local businesses suffer. Road repairs and reconstruction are needed city-wide, and must be made a priority again.

Attract Business Investment.

Westland must compete with neighboring communities like Canton and Livonia by creating a more business-friendly environment. That means making sure future tax-hikes are prevented or kept to a minimum.

New Energy

New Policy

New Approach

After 11 years under the current Mayor, it’s time for a change in Westland.

Aggressively seek business investment

Clean up Westland’s main roads and neighborhoods

Create a safer city for all of us by getting tough on crime

We can continue to lose Homeowners and businesses or we can create an atmosphere that attracts young families and keeps the city affordable for senior citizens.

Make sure we live within our means and avoid tax increases

Prioritize the city budget towards improved public safety

Clean up Westland by enforcing codes and ordinances

The culture at City Hall must change. City employees will have to provide great customer service and never forget who they work for- you!

Change the culture at City Hall by putting people first

Put an end to the insider-politics that has slowed Westland’s progress

Work with the City Council to reduce costs and prevent waste
